Raiders look ahead to Thursday night clash with Kansas City Chief is a big one
with some lasting ramifications on the line. Some are calling it the best
primetime game of the year, others are positing that it could be the biggest
game for the Oakland Raiders in the past decade. However, for the players inside
the Raiders locker room, the primetime matchup with the Chiefs is just the next
game on the schedule. They said just have a next challenge mindset. They’re all
excited about the Thursday Night Football, and what should they do is have to
not lose focus because have a goal to reach, and that’s making it to the Super
Bowl. In 2016, the Oakland Raiders have been the definition of road warriors,
having won all five are their road games this season, as well as an
international “home” game at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Away from their home
stadiums to travel to Arrowhead Stadium for their Week 14 primetime clash with
the Chiefs and be going into the game on just three days rest, which admittedly
presents some challenges for both teams.
